That's because it's very relaxing to play when the pressure of the work gets on you.

Concerning your PC, I think it only lacks a better graphics card than the factory overclocked Gigabyte GeForce 7300 GT 256 MB. I would suggest a DirectX 10 model with 512 MB of onboard memory at the very least.

frankly i hate the super small casing, pawan has the same and when we have to remove HDD and so on, its pain in the ass...ur computer is nearly the same as mine in a ladder of performance.and it seems to be running great, cheers

A new TORNADOWARE TWO is on the way and the actual one will continue to be there but only as a simple office PC. The new one will be in my room and here are some pictures of the components that have already been chosen...

I can't tell you, guys, to which extent he is elated since Gigabyte confirmed that only one Gigabyte 3D Mars has been exported to Mauritius.

Don't worry, baby, I'll make good use of the AeroCool VS-4 and you'll be able to have a glimpse of it when you come at my place, unless you want to swap your case with mine.

It was hard to believe that I finally own a mainstream gaming PC but it's coming gradually now (sirtou kan mwé trouv zot comments, guys).

I don't think that such things will happen because I believe in simplicity of the original product. However, I have already modded in it a more professional way; the exhaust fan of the chassis and the fan of the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus have both been replaced by two Cooler Master 90 CFM Blue LED Silent Fan 120 mm.

As I have already explained in my previous post, I have replaced the original exhaust fan of the Aerocool VS-4 with a Cooler Master 90 CFM Blue LED Silent Fan 120 mm. The consequence is a silent environment, a better ventilated interior and a more appealing look.

When I look at your computer, I see a Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 550 W, which only has two cables (2 PCIe 6+2 pin) more than mine, out of which you're already using one. In terms of connectors, you only have four more than mine.

If I had your power supply unit, I think I would have easily hidden them behind the motherboard tray. However, I have carefully chosen all my parts so that I don't run into unnecessary problems like excess of cables/connectors.

sanla wa li cpv decoler good one anyway just wanted to know if you tried it atleast once to put an intake fan as you see i am trying to solve a rather bizzare problem i am having and i am looking for ways to eliminate factors causing it.

Sneha, that wallpaper is awesome and as I already said before, the chassis has a killer look.

Inside, everything seems to be perfect and in my view, the XFX Radeon HD 6670 1 GDDR5 is the best part of your setup. I'm sure with the newer drivers the performance should be on the rise as your GPU saw the day only 3 months ago.

The CPU Cooler is another excellent choice and the way you have modded it definitely brings it to another level as illustrated by your recorded temperatures and the pictures.

As for the "low" memory score, I also think a BIOS upgrade should fix it.

concerning the topic:the processor will be a bottlenock in this system when playing latest games and thus you wont be able to use the max output of the graphic card. new games now require a minimum of 4 physical cores and hyperthreading can never be as powerful as physical cores. But if the machinr is not intended to play upcoming hardcore games like battlefield 3 then its ok

I mainly play automobile games and I think TORNADOWARE TWO has enough juice for those games. However, should the need to perform an upgrade arise, I won't hesitate.

It seems like you have come to this conclusion based on a personal assumption as facts have shown that an Intel Core i3-530 is a not a bottleneck for high-end graphics cards like the Radeon HD 5850 1 GB GDDR5 and in this case, Sneha has opted for a mid-end graphics card in the name of an XFX Radeon HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5. Moreover, in other benchmarks we have seen that the Intel Core i3-530 (2 cores, 4 threads) enjoys an overall lead over the Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (4 cores, 4 threads). So, I think this argument of yours barely holds any ground.

On another note, neither the gold version of Battlefield 3 nor its beta version is out yet and its predicted recommended system requirements states an Intel Core 2 Duo E8300 for the CPU.

The Logitech Driving Force GT is without doubt the best part of TORNADOWARE TWO. Since my childhood, I have always dreamt of playing with such a controller and now, it's a dream come true. This wheel really brings my games to another level.

Sitting in front of the monitor with my left hand on the wheel, my right hand on the sequential gear shifter and my right foot on the gas pedal makes me feel like being in a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.

Indeed...
